Twenty One Pilots are gearing up to release a concert film chronicling last February’s massive show at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City. Twenty One Pilots: More Than We Ever Imagined is slated to hit IMAX and movie theaters worldwide on Feb. 26 for a limited run, with exclusive IMAX previews slated to begin on Feb. 25.
Tickets for the screenings will go on sale on Jan. 15 here.
“I have spent the better part of the last 16 years of my life following Twenty One Pilots around the world. I have seen them play clubs that were in the basements of bigger clubs for an audience made up of only the other bands on the bill,” said director Mark C. Eshleman in a statement.
“I have seen them play those clubs as if they were on a festival stage during a headline slot and then quietly drag their gear up the steps and into a trailer that limped behind our touring van. They would chat for hours, fine-tuning the show basically no one saw. Their fingers never leave the pulse of the performance; they swear by preparation and a vision.”
Eshleman said that for the new movie he was able to capture the show on the band’s explosive 2024-2025 Clancy world tour not just from the band’s perspective, but also from the fan perspective thanks to nearly two dozen cameras in the crowd. “Over 20 cameras centered around the fans experiencing their show and, the second, the perspective I have had all these years leading up to that sold out stadium in Mexico City, a camera following Tyler and Josh as they take the fundamentals of their show and apply to one of the biggest stages,” he explained.
According to a release, the chronicle of the sold-out concert for 65,000 fans will blend, “cinematic high-energy performance footage with intimate, behind-the-scenes access, revealing the heart, humor, and humanity of the artists as they prepare for one of the biggest shows of their career.” It promises to take viewers from the band’s arrival in Mexico City to the stage, “sharing in the preparation and anticipation that build as showtime approaches”; click here to see the movie poster.
From “sweeping aerials of the stadium,” to on-stage cameras and crowd-level shots that will take viewers into the heart of the experience from the Skeleton Clique point of view, the movie promises to capture the “thrilling, emotional celebration of music, community and achievement” of the band’s biggest show to date.
It will also include exclusive commentary from singer Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun, who will offer their “personal reflections on the journey that brought them to this historic stage and the deep connection with their fans who make it all possible.”
